Parrot Security OS ISO in VirtualBox asks for password when booting in live mode

I made a bootable USB flash drive of Parrot Security OS ISO and am using it in VirtualBox on a PC.

But it is asking me for password when I select live mode when it starts. Why?

How can I boot this or is there a default password?

1 Answer

In live mode (everything is run in RAM).
The default username is "user" and the default password is "toor".

See docs:

If you'd like to change those, drop into root w/ "sudo su" and use “passwd” & “passwd user” to set the root & user passwords respectively. as per s1udge's answer in this thread:
